he's going to have a lot of people looking at his being Mormon rather than at how friggin stupid he is

Yep! 1960 and God-fearing people who had never gotten involved in the dirtiness of politics registered to vote to keep the catholic out of office.

The good outcome is that those I know of stayed involved after that.

1988 and Pat Robertson throws his hat into the ring, and a bunch more folks elevated their involvement, and those I know are still involved.

Folks of the Mormon persuasion will get involved and hopefully stick around to continue casting what I expect would be conservative votes.

Back in the days of Johnny Carson, he had Mel Brooks on the show and made the comment about Mel being of the "Jewish Persuasion". Mel looked right at Johnny and said "I had no choice, there was no persuading"

I also don't respect the person that claims intellect, yet has not sorted out the junk all tied to the founding of the Mormon faith. But I do understand a person having a heritage and being born into a faith.

So when I look at Romney, I have to consider his loyalty to his roots, his track record, any evidence of political integrity.

[And then vote for Sarah!]

My dream victors would be DeMint/Palin or Palin/DeMint either one but Jim doesn't want anything to do with it so something pretty amazing would have to happen for that pair to be our next President and Vice President. You never know, though, I don't think he would have run for another term in the Senate if it hadn't looked like the Republicans could take both Houses. Maybe if it looks like some soggy RINO is going to be the only alternative, his wife could put up with it, it looks like Republicans can hold their gains and pick up some in the Senate, then if Palin was sort of twisting his arm ...

You can see that I think it's a long shot, but I remember when DeMint winning his first election was considered a long shot, too.
